They will fit, but will require adapters. Probably 2" adapters at all four corners unless you're running a 4th gen rear; then you'd only need adapters in the front. Take the specs for the wheels from their website & do the math using the info found here:
Skulte Wheel Adapter FAQ's
I bought 17x9.5 ZR1 replicas from OE Wheels, LLC and have been very happy with them. I needed 2.25" adapters in front & 2.00" adapters in rear. I bought my adapters from EZ Accessories.

Re: C6 wheels fit?
With those wheels you will probably be running a 245 tire up front and 295 in the rear if not larger. The rim width difference is two inches. So you will have much more traction in the rear and in aggressive driving with quick turns the front will loose traction first. Ie when you are wanting the car to turn and you have the wheels turned it may just slide straight. It would be less exaggerated if you had 9.5 rear wheels or went with 10.5 rear and 9.5 front. A car is usually considered more balanced with the same size front and rear wheels. Plus you get to rotate the wheels and potentially increase their life span.

Re: C6 wheels fit?
Thanks for the replies...I decided not to go with oem style wheels.
Got aftermarket 8.5 up front and 11 out back. Will post in a build thread I will create shortly.
Car will only be summer driven and while tires are expensive I figure I'll still get a few years out of the rears.

But rotating wheels would be nice
Those 18" versions should take a 2" spacer all way around. The 19x10 rears would be a 2.5-2.6"
